Wentzell uses sexual health research participation as a case study for investigating the use of individual health behaviors to aid groups facing crisis and change. Wentzell analyzes couples' experiences of a longitudinal study of HPV occurrence in men in Cuernavaca, Mexico. She observes how their experiences reflected Mexican cultural understandings of group belonging through categories like family and race. For instance, partners drew on collective rather than individualistic understandings of biology to hope that men's performance of "modern" masculinities, marriage, and healthcare via HPV research would aid groups ranging from church congregations to the Mexican populace. Thus, Wentzell challenges the common regulatory view of medical research participation as an individual pursuit. Instead, she demonstrates that medical research is a daily life arena which people might use for fixing embodied societal problems. By identifying forms of group interconnectedness as "collective biologies," Wentzell investigates how people can use their own actions to enhance collective health and well-being in ways that neoliberal emphasis on individuality obscures"-- $c Provided by publisher. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 505 0 $a Sexual health research, relationships, and social change in Cuernavaca -- Performing modern masculinities in medical research -- HPV and couples biology -- Cultivating companionate families -- Creating a "culture of prevention" -- Evangelicals participating as piety -- From "human subjects" to "collective biologies". 650 0 $a Sexual health $x Social aspects $x Social aspects $z Mexico. 650 0 $a Medicine $x Social aspects $x Social aspects $z Mexico. 650 0 $a Collective behavior. 650 0 $a Group identity $z Mexico. 650 0 $a Individualism $z United States. 650 2 $a Mass Behavior $0 (DNLM)D008399 650 7 $a Collective behavior. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00867354 650 7 $a Group identity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00948442 650 7 $a Individualism. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00970328 650 7 $a Medicine $x Social aspects. $x Social aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01015088 651 7 $a Mexico. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01211700 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 776 08 $i Online version: $a Wentzell, Emily A., 1980- $t Collective biologies. $d Durham : Duke University Press, 2021 $z 9781478022176 $w (DLC) 2021012451 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117031025.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=4133140E072811ED93C2E7E557ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
